i am now offering customized pet urns. the difficulty of a beloved pet’s death can be overwhelmingly sad and such a huge loss. especially these days where dogs are the new babies, and we spend SO much time with them. i can say with great authority that i LOVE wilma as much as if i had birthed her myself ! here is one way to keep your pet’s memory alive every day. i designed this pet urn after one of my larger sculptural vessels. each urn is hand built out of porcelain and customized with your pet’s personal info.
details are here.

these plates are the first product that i made 17 years ago (which launched my clay career) and i am still making + selling them to this very day. i guess you could say they are my signature item. and although my work has evolved in so many other ways, these plates have remained exactly the same for all of these years. this batch is going to the gallery shop at the palo alto cultural center.

i LOVE old suitcases and totes. i have a huge collection of them that i have picked up at flea markets + antique stores around the world. this one was the perfect size and shape to contain my many tubes of acrylic paints and brushes. i believe it was an old musical instrument case . . . perhaps a clarinet ?

i wanted the soap dish texture to look like an actual wash cloth.

there are a few new vases in my shop. i, for one, can never own too many vases. when i don’t have fresh flowers, i put sticks or curly willow stems in my vases. it adds a really nice touch to any room.

i love when i find love in unexpected places. i was recently at my mom’s house and i spotted this in the courtyard. i wondered how long it had been there, as i visit my mom every few months and had never seen it before. maybe your heart just has to be open to see such unexpected love around you ? whatever the case, it was a lovely find.

i have a new found love for GOUACHE. it’s like painting with intense, vivid, luscious, dense butter. it gives me chills every time.
